What is the Early Literacy Project (ELP)?
The ELP program is an adult learning program: • Developed to provide parents and caregivers opportunities to learn how children from birth to age six become skilled at listening, speaking, and developing the social and self-discipline skills related to success in reading and writing. • Focused on research-based adult/child activities that match the developmental level of the child and the learning level and style of the adult. • Including multimedia experiences embedded in pleasant, socially based activities that build on the observational and conversational strengths of the participants. • Developed to increase community participation in helping our children be successful in school.
